cringe

dnd is cringe

I only found out just recently how cringe D&D has become

You like how all the monster race descriptions make sure to point out that they’re actually very nuanced and there’s plenty of good people in their ranks, but then gives no new lore to back it up

That was apparently supposed to be remedied in "Mordenkainen's Monsters of the Multiverse," but I guess it just restated what you said in more words.

WotC also puts this shit on the page for all PDF and print-on-demand orders for anything produced by TSR: We (Wizards) recognize that some of the legacy content available on this website does not reflect the values of the Dungeons & Dragons franchise today. Some older content may reflect ethnic, racial, and gender prejudice that were commonplace in American society at that time. These depictions were wrong then and are wrong today. This content is presented as it was originally created, because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed. Dungeons & Dragons teaches that diversity is a strength, and we strive to make our D&D products as welcoming and inclusive as possible. This part of our work will never end.

D&D and RPGs is, like, one of very few places in the 70s/80s where anyone of any identity would be welcome, as long as you're a nerd, because all of society excludes you because you're a fucking nerd.

Well even then, something like an illithid isn’t evil for evil’s sake, it literally has to eat people to reproduce

It has to eat people to reproduce, but it doesn't have to enslave the gith. I think that's more why they're listed as "evil."

This is kind of a fault of the alignment system as a whole, but evil doesn’t have to mean malicious

That's not really what it is. It's more so that WotC D&D hasn't explicitly said "law, chaos, good, and evil are not wholly your morality; these are objective forces of nature imposed by supreme beings" like AD&D does.

A paladin doesn't get to equip a longsword +5 holy avenger because he's a nice person, he gets to equip it because he acts in a manner that Lathander or Hieroneous favors and bestows power into the paladin, making it so the sword doesn't burn his hand off when he picks it up.

And hey, if they want me to believe yuan-ti aren’t the snake ubermensch don’t give them darkvision, spell resistance, and poison immunity

That’s what I said dunce, their alignment rules are dumb

For those reasons

Undead have to be evil because negative energy compels them to extinguish all life and blah blah

OH THAT"S DUNCEPARSE

that makes more sense

i thought it was dan reading this chat

i am not this much of a mega nerd

why did dunceparse get umbreon colour anyway

I thought undead being evil wasn't even a WotC thing, but a 5e thing. I know lesser intelligence undead in AD&D and I believe 3.x are neutral, with more intelligent undead having a variety of alignments.

Someone in voice chat said I should be a dark type.

idk.

(It’s because you’re black)

Alright, my mistake. 3.x non-intelligent undead are evil.

So it's a WotC thing then.

of course it was garbage who gave you the dark role

no surprise

I’m fine with the idea that becoming an undead requires some sort of evil sacrificial ritual or violation of nature, but once you become one I prefer them to still have a level of free will depending on what kind they become

Becoming a lich only requires one innocent soul to be sacrificed? Fuck man, that’s a damn good deal if you ask me

whose soul would you sacrifice

i don't think anyone in this server would work

if it has to be an innocent soul

An innocent tree’s soul

The removal of deities and objective alignment from a large amount of D&D's mechanical nature leads to shit falling in way more gray areas.

idk, I like my games better with men, dwarves, and elves fighting big bads, than running around with whatever the fuck a Nyxad Shadowdancer is, or a gay midget Tabaxi sorcerer(draconic bloodline, to be both furry and scaly) with a constant chip on his shoulder strangling bitches for no reason

the removal of deities and objective alignment from a large amount of D&D's mechanical nature and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race

in this essay i will be explaining

How to obtain Watch for Rolling Rocks

with half an a press

you got it wrong

its "with zero point five a presses"

I also got it wrong

to be fair

In this video, I will be explaining exactly what I do to collect Watch for Rolling Rocks in 0.5x A Presses. But first, we need to clear something up. Because every time I post a half A press video, I get the same comments over and over asking what it means, even though I always have a whole paragraph in the description explaining it, which even starts with "If you're wondering what a half A press is, read this before commenting to ask." But maybe what you guys need isn't a paragraph, maybe you guys need an example. So, consider Wing Mario Over The Rainbow, not even the whole star. Just consider getting to that cannon platform, which is a necessary part of getting the star. So, how many A presses does it take to get there? Well, If you say zero, that's wrong. Because then Mario can't go far enough. If you say one, Well it's true that Mario can get there with one but we can do a little better. We can do it in half an A press. To do that, we start the level already holding A and then we use that A press to reach the platform. Now hold on, I know what you're thinking, "an a press is an a press. You can't say its only a half". Well TJ "Henry" Yoshi, hear me out. An A press actually has three parts to it. When A is pressed, when A is held, and when A is released. And together, this forms one complete A press. Now, usually, it's the pressing that's useful. Because that's the only part that makes Mario jump.
